Is my answer correct? Suppose that a firm's short-run production function is F(K,L) = L+VKL, where capital is fixed at K = 4. The rental rate of capital is $24 and the wage rate is $2. The variable cost of production of 48 units of output is (Hint: The amount of labor required to produce 48 units of output is an integer.) 0 $24 0 0 0

Suppose the firm's production function is given by f(L,K) = 5LK. C represents the total cost of production; the price of L is PL and the price of K is PK. Plot an isoquant from this specific production function. Using graphical analysis derive the firm's conditional demand curve for L in both the short and long run. Explain.
